Hi Nuno,

It would be nice, if you could integrate this / look into
scripts/genPHP_INI_ENTRY.php, which is supposed to be there to generate
the ini option list.

Hello Nuno!

Very nice that you have chosen to tackle this problem, here=20
are some related bug reports:

http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=3D18403
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=3D21157

Also be sure to read the following thread as it's chalked=20
full of information on this topic and will no doubt
complicate matters for your script:

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=3Dp...105161194723229

Lastly, I believe there are only three php.ini only=20
directives and that safe_mode is in fact PHP_INI_SYSTEM
but I could be wrong. Also, I too cannot see why=20
"PHP_INI_PERDIR|PHP_INI_SYSTEM" would need to exist.

Regards,
Philip

Also, see whether we can separate some of the ini
entries and put then in ini.xml files on the
appropriate modules.

Glad someone has the time to finish this :-)

You're wrong. PHP_INI_PERDIR and PHP_INI_SYSTEM at the same time does
make sense. And safe_mode has nothing to do with PHP_INI_SYSTEM
whatsoever.

Please explain your words a little better for the documentation
team as we non-phpdev folk need specifics. Why do you feel
PHP_INI_PERDIR doesn't imply PHP_INI_SYSTEM as our definitions
are:

PHP_INI_PERDIR : Entry can be set in php.ini, .htaccess or httpd.conf
PHP_INI_SYSTEM : Entry can be set in php.ini or httpd.conf

If something is the first, it implies the second, right? Rather
than just say "no" how about you explain your reasoning a little.

Also are you saying safe_mode cannot be set in httpd.conf and can
you answer Nuno's questions then? According to main.c it is
PHP_INI_SYSTEM, is the source wrong? Because this is what the
ini docs generating script will use:

#if PHP_SAFE_MODE
STD_PHP_INI_BOOLEAN("safe_mode", "1", PHP_INI_SYSTEM, OnUpdateBool,
safe_mode, php_core_globals, core_globals)
#else
STD_PHP_INI_BOOLEAN("safe_mode", "0", PHP_INI_SYSTEM, OnUpdateBool,
safe_mode, php_core_globals, core_globals)
#endif

Philip

I agree with you. So I change this to PHP_INI_PERDIR automatically.

My program is a bit more inteligent because it doens't rewrite the all
ini-set.xml file. It searchs for the table and replaces only the table, thus
leaving the content untouched.
AFAIR The gen_PHP_INI_ENTRY.php also modifies the en/reference/*/ini.xml
files and mine doesn't do this.

It's just more homework for me :) My vacations are almost coming, so...
Later I'll try to merge the best of the two programs.

Don't do that, it's wrong.

Hi Derick,

First, Thanks for removing those bogus ini settings!

Why is INI_PERDIR diferent from PHP_INI_PERDIR|PHP_INI_SYSTEM?

Following Philip's idea, the manual states:
PHP_INI_PERDIR 2 Entry can be set in php.ini, .htaccess or httpd.conf
PHP_INI_SYSTEM 4 Entry can be set in php.ini or httpd.conf

So PHP_INI_PERDIR|PHP_INI_SYSTEM would have the value 6. If INI_PERDIR can
be set in "php.ini, .htaccess or httpd.conf", where else can you set those
ini options with permissions 6? Can you explain us, please?

Thanks,
Nuno
